Ultimate Sensors offers a large variety of easily mountable light sources of different wavelengths. US' light source is a C-mount standard device with a LED or Laser diode installed in its precise geometrical center. The integrated supporting circuit includes a line receiver, fast swithing circuitry, voltage regulator, and current source. The light source is connected through a sandard 5-pin single raw connector.

Ultimate Sensors' light source is an advanced optoelectronical system using complicated integrated circuitry for fast switching, giving realy sharp fronts of the produced ooptical signal.

LED based light sources are available in two packages - with an integrated focusing system (type A) and with point light source (type B).

- The device is powered by 7÷15 Volt DC (current up to 25 mA).
-
OFF when input voltage is smaller then 0.5 V.
-
ON when input voltage is larger then 1.5V (up to 3.3 V).
-
Rising time of the optical signal is up to 20 nS.
- Falling time of an optical signal is up to 40 nS
